Ahoy mates, Hypnos here, and welcome to what is the first in what will hopefully be a continuing (and wildly popular) series of articles dispatched "post-mortem" of a release. These articles are meant to provide a bit of fun insight into the decisions that go into what to include in the game and what gets left out. As a warning, it will not be going into great detail about what we will be releasing next, as the cap'n likes keeping ye pirates surprised. (Keeps away the scurvy.) Instead we'd like to give a feeling of some of the daily decisions that are made in the production of a release and how individual contributions come together to make a release.
